Iran Mocks Trump Oil Warning as Blockade Tensions Push Crude Toward $140
The war of words between Iran and the United States is intensifying as Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf mocked Donald Trump’s claims that Iran’s oil infrastructure was close to “exploding” under US blockade pressure. Ghalibaf said no oil wells had been affected and warned that Washington’s strategy could instead send global oil prices soaring toward $140 per barrel. The escalating standoff around the Strait of Hormuz continues to fuel fears of a deeper global energy crisis.
